It concerns me a bit that we would start talking about something that's not science based. The challenges we've had in southwest Nova Scotia to this point have been about trying to put a limit or an idea of what different fisheries are taking out of the ocean. DFO has not done a great job of compiling the data from fishermen, from indigenous fishermen and from other participants in those fisheries.
I want to understand how, in this particular case, the data collection process is structured. How are we going to have confidence in the data we'll be getting out of this?
